UNION OF ENEMIES - Chapter 5
Chapter 5
Translated by CatMeme6
Today, Dr. Zhen’s mood is very good.
This was the conclusion derived by the little nurse who had observed him secretly because early in the morning, someone had noticed him coming through the hospital entrance humming a tune and occasionally revealing a strange smile. Although he was still carrying out his work in his normal calm way, there was still a feeling as if something was different.
“Say, do you think it could be related to the handsome boy yesterday?” A little nurse asked curiously in the crowd of nurses while her eyes flashed brightly showing her interest in gossiping.
“It is possible. Didn’t you hear them dating yesterday? Dr. Zhen must have attained relief physically and mentally, so he is feeling cheerful and happy.” Another nurse stretched her head over with clenched fists and nodded firmly.
Another nurse scowled miserably and said. “I had wondered why Dr. Zhen normally did not try to get close to us. It turned out his interest is a different tune.”
“This world is now really different. Women do not only have to fight among women for men, but they also have to fight with men…….” A mournful sigh could be heard and several heads bowed at the same time.
“But they look good together.” It was not known who whispered. The nurses who were bowing their heads in misery quickly raised their heads and glared in the direction of the voice. The one who was glared at by the group was bent over the desk scribbling rapidly, completely unaware that she had become the focus of their killing stares. She was still wondering whether he was the one above or the one below.
The pen in hand was gliding smoothly over the paper. He was thinking when he got up early today, the person had already disappeared and apparently, she was intentionally avoiding him. It seems that she was really very angry last night.
A roar had sounded then followed by a shake similar to a Magnitude 5 earthquake. Then this morning, as expected he found a big crack on the large coffee table. It was a one-inch thick tempered glass table top, ah,……tsk…..tsk…….
He did not realize he had stopped writing. He took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. His long slender fingers rested on his handsome face and the smile on his lips was hidden behind his palm.
It has been a long time since he had played with her. It gave him a good feeling.
Wang Shao Guan stood in the doorway and saw Zhen Lang’s appearance at this moment. There was slyness in his faint smile and blending with the strong calmness he exuded, it gave out a very strange feeling. After a long while, she regained her senses and knocked nervously on the door.
The sounds of knocking on the door made Zhen Lang lift his head. The smile in his eyes disappeared and only politeness was left on his face.

Today, Wang Shao Guan had dressed up in a tight-fitting black business suit which showed maturity and enhanced her good figure. She had her hair knotted into a bun with a few strands of hair falling around her ears revealing an elegant beautiful slender neck. “Dr. Zhen, can I have a few words with you?”
“Please come in.” Zhen Lang stretched out his hand and gestured to her.
Wang Shao Guan nodded but did not come in. Her eyes fell on her exquisite watch and said. “Yesterday, our conversation was not finished, so I came over today but the nurse said that you were busy. I hope I did not disturb your lunch time.”
Zhen Lang looked at the clock on the wall and stood up. “I’m sorry. How about I treat Miss Wang to lunch?”
Wang Shao Guan showed a generous smile. She nodded, turned around and walked out.
After taking off his doctor’s coat, Zhen Lang in a western suit appeared even taller and more handsome. On the street, he attracted a lot of stares and Wang Shao Guan who was standing beside him also received a lot of attention. Suddenly she felt very proud.
The place chosen by Zhen Lang is a quiet café with soft music floating in the air and the booths are separated by carved wooden columns. It is a good place for chatting and it is also a place suitable for…….lovers.
Wang Shao Guan looked at the list of high-calorie cakes and drinks on the menu. Quietly she closed it and said. “Give me a glass of cold water.”
After Zhen Lang had handed back the menu to the waiter, he looked at Wang Shao Guan and asked. “Is it about the dinner party that you mentioned yesterday?”
She nodded and smiled. “Although it is called a dinner party, in actual fact, it is just a small family gathering. Tomorrow is the weekend. Will Dr. Zhen be free to attend?”
Before he could reply, Wang Shao Guan beamed a perfect smile. “Grandpa especially hopes you can attend, so I had chosen this day. Seeing that I had personally come twice to invite you, you must make sure you come.”
Zhen Lang pondered for a while and said. “Liquor is a doctor’s taboo. Even on a vacation, a surgeon usually does not drink alcohol because one doesn’t know when an emergency may occur, so…….”
He had not completely finished stating his refusal, when a black shadow floated over like a dark cloud blocking the light from above his head. A hoarse and sexy voice drifted over his shoulder, saying intimately. “Ah Lang, you’re here. Why didn’t you call me to have lunch with you?”
Jia Shao looked sideways at Zhen Lang with a bright smile on her lips and the sharpness in her eyes hid a ferocity that only he could understand.
“You actually know I am here. What a coincidence.” Zhen Lang returned her stare and the two people’s eyes met silently. Wang Shao Guan who was sitting opposite seems to be able to hear the sounds of knives and guns but looking at them, it looked like a harmonious scene of love and affection.
Grinding her molars, Jia Shao smiled with so much sweetness that honey could almost be extracted. “How can one not know where one’s love is? This is what you call telepathy, hearts linked as one……”
Of course, she knows…….because she was cursing him the whole morning in the studio.
Half an hour ago………
*Dong, dong, dong…….* Fang Qing Kui looked at the new coffee table she had just bought and the person who was knocking her head on it. She did not know whether she should sympathize with the poor table or pity Jia Shao who had knocked her head the whole morning.
“So you have completely exposed yourself?” From Jia Shao’s disconnected swearing, she could vaguely guess.
The head that was knocking on the table suddenly lifted up and the eyes shone with a fierce light. “No!!!!”
He had said that there were two pieces of panties in the bathroom just to distract her and he took the opportunity to slip away. She was wearing it……wearing it……wearing it!!!
“Then why are you so depressed? Are you depressed because you did not expose yourself?” Fang Qing Kui leisurely opened a bag of chips and munched on it noisily.
“You!!!…….” Jia Shao angrily snatched over the bag of chips, grabbed a handful and stuffed it into her mouth. “I was actually cheated by him. I was cheated with one sentence. This is what I am depressed about. Luckily for him, he ran off quickly last night, otherwise, I would have skinned him and deboned him to boil soup.”
“Pui!” Her friend did not give her face and laughed. “Are you sure you can boil soup?”
“Don’t undermine me or else……” Jia Shao clenched her fists and looked threateningly at the newly bought coffee table in front of her which had just been assembled but still not completely unwrapped.
Fang Qing Kui twitched her mouth, rolled her eyes and was no longer interested in bantering with her. She munched her potato chips as she looked around boringly.
Suddenly, she tugged Jia Shao’s clothes and raised her chin in the direction of the door. “Is that Zhen Lang? The girl beside him is very attractive. Is that his girlfriend?”
Jia Shao turned around and looked at the target. Stop…….follow him.
A smiled appeared and the weird smile made people suspicious.
The figure in front of Fang Qing Kui had disappeared without a trace, only leaving the swaying door slowly closing by itself.
***#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#***
“Yes, my love.” Zhen Lang withdrew his gaze, placed his arm around Jia Shao’s waist and hugged her. He bent his arm, gave a hard tug and his opponent fell on his lap. He leaned into her ear and said intimately. “What would you like to eat, my…… love……?”
Jia Shao shivered and felt a sourness surging up from her stomach, moving up along her esophagus and got stuck in her throat. The hair on her whole body stood up and every grain of goosebumps rose to the surface of her skin.
Jia Shao was thinking of giving him two big slaps in retaliation on his face that was glued to hers. When she looked up, she saw sitting opposite her, Wang Shao Guan’s surprise and unbelievable expression.
Yesterday, the person in Zhen Lang’s office was her, right?
Jia Shao’s outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, then leisurely turned and picked up the menu. “Ah Lang, are you treating me today?” Her other hand slipped under the table and pinched hard on Zhen Lang’s thigh.
“That’s correct.” Someone’s hand intimately hugged her waist while he flipped the menu for her. “Last night you made me very happy, so it is only right that I feed you today.”
While Jia Shao’s hand was pinching him hard on his thigh, he maintained his composure and tightened his grip around her waist and two of his fingers were secretly pinching the tender flesh on her waist. The expression of the two people changed at the same time and simultaneously they broke into bright smiles.
Gritting her teeth, she did not even glance at the menu and used more force with her hand. “How is this?”
Zhen Lang also used force at the same time. “As long as you like it. Why not a bit more?”
She used more force and made a 720-degree turn. “Well, how about this?”
Zhen Lang twisted his hand back and forth……forth and back. “This taste is not bad, why not try another style?”
Jia Shao nipped a little of his skin between her nails. “How about this taste?”
He released his hand and quickly hugged the other side of her waist. “Good, what do you think of this?”
The young waiter was sweating profusely and his hand was flying over the order list he was writing on. With a blink of an eye, the order list had grown very long. In front of him, the two ‘men’ who were looking deeply and tenderly into each other’s eyes did not seem to have any intention to stop as they continued.
Wang Shao Guan who was suddenly ignored felt somewhat uncomfortable in the strange atmosphere. With difficulty, she finally found her voice and said. “That……the dinner party……..”
“Dinner party?” Jia Shao’s eyes suddenly lit up when she thought of alcohol and stared at Wang Shao Guan. “Are you having a dinner party with alcohol?”
“Er……” Wang Shao Guan could not stand the young man’s enthusiasm in front of her. It did not seem right for her to nod her head nor was it right for her to shake her head.
At that moment, Zhen Lang gave a laugh. “That’s right. Miss Wang’s family is having a dinner party and they should be serving good wines. Do you want to try it out tomorrow?” n𝑜𝔳𝗲)𝓵𝐛-In
When Jia Shao heard there was going to be wine, she had completely forgotten about the person who was speaking. Her mind was only filled with three words ~ Wine is good. Tomorrow there will be wine for her to drink.
“Okay then, tomorrow…….” Zhen Lang looked at the person sitting on his lap with her eyes shaped like the full moon. Then he smiled and nodded at the calm and elegant woman sitting opposite him. “……..We will come at the appointed time.”
“Tomorrow? We?” Jia Shao suddenly regained her senses. Her eyebrows lifted and she became guarded like a hedgehog. “Why is……”
Before she could question him, a group of waiters came over with their orders and placed them in front of her. “Sir, these are your orders.”
Jia Shao looked at the colorful array of food, all soft foods either with cream or jam in front of her. She twitched her mouth. “What are all these?”
The waiter picked up the menu. “You ordered all these just now ~ Loire Valley Mouse, Princess Vienna, Fruit Tower, Charlotte Royal Cake, Rockery Cake, Christmas Coffee Log Cake, Milk Tea Ice-cream, Creole Cake, Kajwadus Apple, Lemon Cartka, Souffle, Chestnut Cream and French Bristle Ring.”
She felt dizzy when she caught the smell of the sweet, creamy, fruity smell all blended together. Her face paled and her body stiffened. “What are all these things?”
She did not know when Zhen Lang had hugged her waist once again. His fingers gripped a dessert spoon and he scooped up a serving of cream cake. “You ordered these desserts. I remember these are the desserts that you love so much.”
Desserts that I love so much?! It should be……these desserts are going to kill me!! About that love……..
Just as she opened her mouth and a spoonful of cream cake was stuffed into her mouth. The thin, soft stuff melted and spread in her mouth. The sourness that was stuck in her throat almost spurted out. Magnified in front of her eyes, was Zhen Lang’s smug smile while he held a big spoonful of cream.
The bastard! Ever since that incident, she had refused all sweet foods and he actually…….
She mustered all her strength and tore open Zhen Lang’s suit. The top two buttons of his shirt instantly flew off and then she pushed her head close to him.
“Vomit…….”
